Chapter 33:

"Why are you crying?" Josh asked me as I sat cradled in his lap refusing to move form my stop, unable to speak I only shook my head. The tears had stopped at this point and I only lay with Josh waiting for my heart to stop aching as thoughts of what I was soon going to have to do continued to eat away at me. There was no doubt or question in my situation, my only choice was to do as Brendan said. On Sunday night I had to leave there was no choice in the matter, if I didn't Michelle would find out about Josh and I, the press would find out, and god forbid the police. Josh's career and reputation would go up in flames, everything he had worked for his whole life would go to waste. I can't imagine what Michelle would think of me and even worse Josh. It was difficult for me to imagine even what Connor must think of me. I lied to him about this, the fact that he had yet to say something terrified me as well. What if he said something to Josh before I could talk him out of it? I abruptly pushed myself out of Josh's lap and stood on my weak legs, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror before I exited my room, my eyes were bloodshot and puffy and my face was soaked in tears, I wiped my face with the edge of the shirt and reached for the door. "Charlotte?" Josh's voice stopped me.

"Yes?" I murmured almost inaudibly.

"What the hell just happened?" He inquired jumping to his feet and coming to my side. More than anything I wanted to tell him, I wanted to turn to him and tell him about Brendan and tell him that no matter what happened tomorrow or what I said I would be in love with him for the rest of my life, but I couldn't. If he knew there's no telling what he would do to prevent it, he was going to live his life without my brief presence in it destroying it. Leaving him was going to be the most excruciating experience of my life and knowing that I was going to have nothing to tell him other than I had to go was going to make it even worse. He could hate me for it, even though it would save him. Which was the only thing that made it worth it.

"It's nothing." I placed my hand on his chest and opened my door, "please, for me, just forget this happened." I stepped out forcing myself to smile at him. He nodded and stood in my doorway letting me go as I walked downstairs.

"Are you okay Charlotte? I heard you scream and Josh said he had to deal with it alone." Connor jumped to his feet startling me as I entered the room.

"Oh yeah, I'm good, I stubbed my toe on my bed." I lied fake laughing, Connor raised an eyebrow suspiciously at me, before chuckling. "Can I talk to you alone?" I blurted out.

"We're pretty alone now, Jennifer had a meeting she had to go to." I nodded and sat down on the couch next to him.

I paused my words getting scrambled as I tried to speak, "Were you watching me and Josh last night?"

Connor sighed putting his face in his hands and rubbing his eyes tiredly as if he had been hoping that this wouldn't come up, "yes."

"Why didn't you say anything to Josh?" I pushed him needing to know what his intentions were.
